Chris Catalyst - new album/ website/ blog

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Interesting that musical elements of Far Parade have morphed into Show Me and Black Sail.

My notebook crashed again yesterday evening ... :evil: ... and I got it working again by the morning ... :twisted: ... but it made me miss this.

Watching now, however ... :) ... Oh, he did a cover of Absolute Beginners ... what a pleasure! ... :D ... such a great tune and wonderful lyrics ...

I've always loved that sort of Bowie songs. Hell, can't tell for how long I didn't hear it ... so thanks for this! ... ;D :notworthy: ...


EDIT:
Some note from the later communications ...

Well that was me asking :lol: :lol:

Some minutes before that he said that there were bad news for the Sis and suddenly he changed subject and after that he remembered a story and then played a song without mention what was about ;D :lol: :lol:

Well also asked him if it was his idea and proposal of Bowie's "John i'm only dancing" cover back in XXX tour and he answered yes :notworthy:

This is a bit out of context. A question was asked by someone in such a way that made it sound like Chris was currently playing with them, so "I've got some bad news for you" was a reference to that.

Evidently as the question came from this group, that's not what said question meant, but that's how it sounded read aloud and shorn of context.

In other words: it wasn't meant in any derogatory fashion!

I think you have to also add a huge and heavily accented dose of healthy northern self-deprecation to Chris' answer as well.
....if I have to explain, then you'll never understand....

No. It wasn't meant in any derogatory way at all, just Northern humour... :lol: ...

I thought that was clear... :? ... Sorry if that should have been misleading.

Chris also said in the next sentence: "He's good." ... :) ...

On’stage’ in 45 mins over at www.youtube.com/ChrisCatalystMusic - just been practising with my new Audio-Technica USA USB mic - I think it’s going to sound good tonight! Been rehearsing a lot of new songs... from the likes of Motörhead, The Bee Gees, Willie Dowling, Bowie, Pulp and Devin.
